A Beginner's Guide

If you have a website or blog and you're ready to monetize your site, the Google AdSense program is the perfect one to start with. Some of the benefits of AdSense is that it is easy to setup and incredibly easy to use, in addition to the array of ad options you can choose to display. In short, AdSense is a great place for a beginner who is looking to place ads on their newly developed website or blog. How does AdSense work? AdSense ads are triggered by your contect displayed on your site. For example, if your site was all about golf balls, AdSense ads would be centered all around golf balls. They work excellent because the ads displayed are directly related to your site, therefore increasing the chance that someone will click on an ad. How much do I make per click? A lot of that depends on what keywords you are using and how much the advertisers are bidding per keyword. I've earned up to $1.50 or more per click several times. It really just depends overall. How can I increase my conversions? Use ads that blend with your site and content. You can customize your Google ads to appear as text ads or image ads or both. For text ads, you can set the color scheme to a similar scheme on your site. Like I previously said, it is best to blend them in with your content. This generally will allow for more conversions. Those are just a few things about AdSense and how good it really is. You can learn more about AdSense it's capabilities by checking out http://www.google.com/AdSense
